Procedural optimization is facilitated by receiving user input for creating or modifying a body of text comprising a procedure, detecting one or more procedural steps associated with the procedure using a procedural step detection module, automatically searching within a corpus of references for one or more related procedural steps using a related procedural step extraction module, automatically identifying one or more outcomes within the corpus of references associated with the one or more related procedural steps using an outcome extraction module, automatically determining whether the one or more outcomes comprise detrimental results using an outcome analysis module, and, in response to determining a set of detrimental outcomes from the one or more outcomes that comprise detrimental results, presenting a detriment indicator within the user interface in association with the one or more procedural steps.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The system of claim 1, wherein the detriment indicator indicates a weight of detriment associated with the one or more procedural steps.
7. The system of claim 1, wherein the set of detrimental outcomes omits a particular outcome that fails to satisfy a detriment confidence threshold, the detriment confidence threshold indicating a level of confidence in a determination by the outcome analysis module that a result associated with an outcome of a related procedural step is detrimental.
10. The system of claim 1, wherein the one or more related procedural steps identified using the related procedural step extraction module satisfy a threshold of relevance to content of the one or more procedural steps.
11. The system of claim 1, the procedure being associated with a clinical trial protocol.
16. The method of claim 15, wherein the detriment indicator indicates a weight of detriment associated with the one or more procedural steps.
